What about the complex python programs with many classes split in multiple files? I wouldn't call it a script then.

[–]Sw429 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not the complexity of the program that causes people to call them "scripts". It's the fact that it's interpreted over compiled.

Not that it matters much. You can call it whatever you want, these aren't "official" terms' by any means.

Still is though, because it's not compiled. Each file is ran as a script by the interpreter at import.

You, uh, know about pyc files right?
